References for Helen Diaz

CalmNudes

Looking down Helen's references I see things like "Ease and openness" "Made me Laugh so much", "Great with voices" and "Mad as a box of frogs" ... our shoot had some things going against it, and I wouldn't have blamed anyone for apologising and asking to choose a fresh time, but she was every inch the professional. If you like your professionalism dry and dour, then Helen's probably not the model for you. She's chatty, friendly, funny but also knew how to get the best from the ideas I had and when I wasn't sure about anything she could inject something to keep the great pictures going.

Brilliant woman. "Mad as a box of frogs"? Yep. A catering size box. But very high on my list of "must shoot again"

Just had my first shoot with Helen at Spitfire Studios. Helen is a lively, fun girl and we had a lively fun shoot! Helen is a true professional and works hard to make the images work and the shoot enjoyable. We should have some great pictures from the shoot. Highly recommended.

Helen is not only a stunning model but I have never shot someone who made me laugh so much - a total pleasure to work with and I really look forward to working with her again.

A true superstar - a stunning superstar!

Helen joined the team of Gone Global Photography Location Day and her look was "Italian Widow meets Sophia Loren" inspired. She rocked it!

Wonderful, beautiful, zany lady. Easy to direct, creative, fun and makes great coffee. I'm very proud of the results of the shoot, but the outcome was mostly down to Helen's talent and professionalism.

I'm looking forward to working with her again, but Simon's number?.... Actually I think he'd be delighted!

Helen is beautiful model and fantastic person. Professional and full of energy.

She maintain excellent communication before shoot and keeps me informed where she is, till the last minute. :)

Poses naturally, with grace and her eyes and face expression are a dream of every portrait photographer.

Despite very busy studio, Helen was very focused and I've get 101% from this shoot.

Hope I'll have opportunity to work with her again.

I can't believe it was April last year when I had a shoot with Helen. She is as mad as box of frogs! There is never a dull moment in a shoot involving this lovely lady. A laugh a minute and stunning poses - I can't think of better way to spend an afternoon. I will not leave it so long to shoot with her again.

Simply precious!

This was my first time shooting with Helen, and although we were on a tight schedule with fading light, we still managed to get some totally cracking shots. She does a pretty decent Smeagol voice too, so she's vocally versatile too. She trusted me and let me stick her in interesting places, and didn't give her best for the entire duration. I hope she comes and visits me sometime so I can shoot her again!

much love for this Bristolian.

I had the pleasure of working with Helen at Storm's workshop today and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. As well as being beautiful she poses fluidly and expressively, is fun, friendly and interesting. I certainly hope to work with Helen again and would recommend her unreservedly.

Helen is a joy to work with. Instantly likeable and friendly. A touch zaney but I guess it helps in this job. I know I got some great shots with very little direction and will post them up here when I have the time. Great communication, when either of us felt the shot wasn't working, we said so and always agreed so moved on to save time. Fantastic figure, awesome face, beautiful hair. A winner all round so I would absolutely recommend her and can't wait to work with again. All the best!

Wow - what can I say??!! Helens pre-shoot communication was 1st class, and so open. We ended up talking about things besides the shoot!

On the day of the shoot, the ease and openness continued. And the day just flew by! Helen is a ball of energy with a constant smile on her face (Her party trick has already been mentioned in other references...). Poses, and listens to direction very well; and has boundless enthusiasm..

Helen has a killer body, and a face that was made to be photographed. She is simply, a stunning young lady x

I was looking forward to shoot with Helen as I'd never worked with somebody with a look like hers previously. She is very unique with such an INCREDIBLE face! She was very patient whilst having hair and makeup done and helped us produce some great images.

Helen was definitely made to be in front of the camera!!!!

It has been an absolute pleasure to meet and work with Helen this week.

As a studio we place a large emphasis on teamwork and Helen slipped effortlessly into this mode,

bringing professionalism, ideas, patience and above all, a great wit to our shoot.

We appreciated both her versatility and vibrancy and, it is without reservation, that we would recommend Helen.

A fun, creative day and we look forward to our paths crossing again in the future.

I worked with Helen in my studio yesterday and it was an absolute delight!

Her pre shoot communications were excellent (Helen introduced me to Dropbox) and she arrived ready to shoot. Hair and make up looked great, she took direction when required, she had great freestyle and contributed her own ideas to the shoot, we ended up with some great images.

Helen has a great personality that makes her very easy to work with, likes to laugh and hold an intelligent conversation.

Would I use her again - you bet. Would I recommend Helen to other photographers - definitely.

What can I say? Great pre-shoot communications, professional, funny and very entertaining too; working with Helen is an experience not to be missed. Book her, you won’t be disappointed!

I had my 2nd shoot with Helen today at her home and she is a real pleasure to work with. Chatty with a nice sense of humour she is happy to give input and weeks well with the photographer. Got some great shots. Highly recommended

Helen was an absolute delight to work with. We shot today at her home and as always produced a lot of exceptionally good images. Helen is bright, witty, well prepared, totally professional and really good fun to work with. She contributes a lot of ideas and good images seem to flow from the energy and beautiful poses that she creates. I really recommend her and hope to work with her again soon.

I had the pleasure of working with Helen again.

Pre-shoot communication was excellent and Helen kept in touch on her progress to the studio on the day as well.

An excellent "can-do" attitude and she works extremely well when directed or left to "free style".

The MUA, hair stylist and myself had a great day with Helen as she is so easy to work with and we will all be rescheduling our next shoot soon.

I recommend Helen without any reservations.
